Rodrigo "Rody" Roa Duterte (born March 28, 1945), also known by the nickname Digong, is a Filipino lawyer and politician of Visayan descent and is the President-elect of the Philippines, topping the official Congressional canvass for the 2016 election. He will be the first Mindanaoan president of the country.
Duterte is among the longest-serving mayors in the Philippines and has been Mayor of Davao City, a highly urbanized city on Mindanao island, for seven terms, totalling more than 22 years. He has also served as vice-mayor and as congressman for the city.
Nicknamed "The Punisher", vigilante groups tied to Duterte are thought to be responsible for the executions of drug traffickers, criminals, gang members and other lawless elements. Over a period of 20 years, he turned Davao City from the "murder capital of the Philippines" to what tourism organisations now describe as "the most peaceful city in southeast Asia," and what numbeo.com ranks as the world's fourth safest place.Nonetheless, Duterte has drawn criticism from various sources, particularly the press and the Philippine National Police leadership in the Aquino government, which contest the effectiveness of his policies.
Duterte had been urged to run for the Philippine presidency numerous times, but he refused these offers until well into 2015 on the grounds of a "flawed government system", old age and opposition from his family.[16] Nevertheless, on November 21, 2015, he declared his candidacy in the 2016 election contest for the office of the President of the Philippines, and won with a landslide victory, garnering 16,601,997 votes. Duterte took office on June 30, 2016, for a term of six years. He is now a 16th President of the Philippines.

BruneiJudiciary rolls out digital filing system enabling lawyers to file and track cases online from anywhere at anytime and court officials to monitor case progress and post updates

EFF's International Rights Director Katitza Rodriguez travels to Peru to learn and share knowledge about the complex fight against surveillance in the country, in particular, the local challenges with Peru's new data retention law. See EFF conduct workshops with Peruvian digital rights activists, human rights NGOs, and journalists to discuss the challenges of protecting one's privacy in the digital age, and teach ways in which these groups can better protect themselves and their data. This video is in Spanish with English subtitles.

Prominent surgeon Susan Lim wrote to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) saying that to defend herself properly she would have to expose information that could cause "unnecessary embarrassment" to Brunei and affect ties between the country and Singapore if a disciplinary hearing against her proceeded, the High Court heard on Monday.
Dr Lim's letter dated 1 March 2010 and addressed to Minister for Foreign AffairsGeorge Yeo was presented yesterday to the High Court, which will have to decide whether the Singapore Medical Council (SMC) can set up a second disciplinary hearing against her regarding the fees she charged a patient, the cousin of Brunei's Sultan and sister of his queen.
SMC's lawyer, senior counsel Alvin Yeo, told the High Court that the letter amounted to Dr Lim "threatening" Minister Yeo and was another attempt by her to "subvert the legal process", according to The Straits Times.
In the letter, Dr Lim said that "some of the facts that may cast a negative light on Brunei" include the medical condition of the patient and the "apparently inconsistent relationship between the Ministry of Health, Brunei, the Royal Family and the patient's family".
She also claimed that there had been "extraordinary and often unreasonable demands placed on me by the patient and the Royal Family, including significant out-of-pocket expenses I was made to bear... including the cost of a private air-charter to transport the patient to Brunei which I personally paid for", TODAY reported.
Pengiran Damit, who had breast cancer, was Dr Lim's patient from 2001 until her death in 2007. Last month, the news broke that Dr Lim charged her $26 million for the period January to July 2007, but later slashed the fee to just over $3 million.
In a letter of reply dated 16 March last year, the MFA said it had taken note of Dr Lim's letter and that the it "is not in a position to intervene in an ongoing legal process".
Dr Lim, who is facing 94 charges of professional misconduct by the Ministry of Health, also wrote to the chairman of the second disciplinary committee formed by the SMC to look into the complaint of overcharging against her.
Yeo told the High Court that in the letter Dr Lim sought to raise "ridiculous assertions of purported personal or professional conflict of interest against" the chairman.
Earlier, the High Court heard that Dr Lim allegedly marked up bills of third-party doctors by as much as 500 times, allegations that Dr Lim's lawyer, senior counsel Lee Eng Beng, described on Monday as "false and mischievous".
The reading of the bills were taken out of context and should include other services provided at the time, Lee contended. He also questioned SMC's lack of a benchmark to determine a case of overcharging.
Meanwhile, as the hearings were being held, Lim herself was away travelling in the U.S. and Europe.
According to Dr Lim's husband, banker Deepak Sharma, she attended a medical conference in San Francisco before going on a private trip to a high-end ski resort in Courchevel, France, where she joined her two daughters, aged 19 and 21, The New Paper reported.
On 20 March, she said on her Twitter page that was "starting the yearly pilgrimage up the mountain from Moutiers to Courchevel to enjoy the freshness of spring skiing."
On 19 March, she said she had an "exhausting day at the shops in Geneve with my teenage daughters before hitting the slopes".
On 25 March, she tweeted, "Let not an honest citizen be trampled upon by public authorities when their injustice and irregularities are exposed."
She had been expected to fly back to Singapore yesterday.

Indonesia woman Nur Elita caned in public for breaking Sharia Law in Aceh province - TomoNews

ACEH, INDONESIA — A young college student in Indonesia was publicly caned for indecency on Monday in the courtyard of Baiturrahman mosque in Banda Aceh.
According to the Jakarta Post, Nur Elita, 20, was punished under Sharia law for being in close proximity to a male university student, Wahyudi Saputra, 23, because he was not her husband or her relative.
On the day of Elita's public caning, crowds including women were heard cheering as she walked on stage. Elita was forced to kneel before she was caned five strokes. Her friend Wahyudi was forced to stand while being caned five strokes.
"Take these punishments as a lesson. What has been done by these convicts should not be taken as an example. And I hope their canings in Meuraxa district today will be the last ever," Deputy Mayor Zainal Arifin was quoted as saying in the Jakarta Post article.
Indonesia's conservative Aceh province implemented a Sharia-based law system in 2003 after becoming a special autonomous region after a long period of revolt against Indonesia.
Morality police patrol Aceh looking for anyone, especially women, who may be violating Sharia law.

PresidentRodrigo "Rody" Roa Duterte, also known by the nickname Digong, is a Filipino lawyer and politician of Visayan descent who is the current President-elect of the Philippines after topping the official Congressional canvass for the 2016 election.
Born: March 28, 1945 (age 71), MaasinParty: PDP-Laban
Spouse: Elizabeth Abellana Zimmerman (m. 1973–2001), Honeylet Avancena

Rodrigo "Rody" Roa Duterte (born March 28, 1945), also known by the nickname Digong, is a Filipino lawyer and politician of Visayan descent and is the President-elect of the Philippines, topping the official Congressional canvass for the 2016 election. He will be the first Mindanaoan president of the country.
Duterte is among the longest-serving mayors in the Philippines and has been Mayor of Davao City, a highly urbanized city on Mindanao island, for seven terms, totalling more than 22 years. He has also served as vice-mayor and as congressman for the city.
Nicknamed "The Punisher", vigilante groups tied to Duterte are thought to be responsible for the executions of drug traffickers, criminals, gang members and other lawless elements. Over a period of 20 years, he turned Davao City from the "murder capital of the Philippines" to what tourism organisations now describe as "the most peaceful city in southeast Asia," and what numbeo.com ranks as the world's fourth safest place.Nonetheless, Duterte has drawn criticism from various sources, particularly the press and the Philippine National Police leadership in the Aquino government, which contest the effectiveness of his policies.
Duterte had been urged to run for the Philippine presidency numerous times, but he refused these offers until well into 2015 on the grounds of a "flawed government system", old age and opposition from his family.[16] Nevertheless, on November 21, 2015, he declared his candidacy in the 2016 election contest for the office of the President of the Philippines, and won with a landslide victory, garnering 16,601,997 votes. Duterte took office on June 30, 2016, for a term of six years. He is now a 16th President of the Philippines.

Prominent surgeon Susan Lim wrote to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) saying that to defend herself properly she would have to expose information that could cause "unnecessary embarrassment" to Brunei and affect ties between the country and Singapore if a disciplinary hearing against her proceeded, the High Court heard on Monday.
Dr Lim's letter dated 1 March 2010 and addressed to Minister for Foreign AffairsGeorge Yeo was presented yesterday to the High Court, which will have to decide whether the Singapore Medical Council (SMC) can set up a second disciplinary hearing against her regarding the fees she charged a patient, the cousin of Brunei's Sultan and sister of his queen.
SMC's lawyer, senior counsel Alvin Yeo, told the High Court that the letter amounted to Dr Lim "threatening" Minister Yeo and was another attempt by her to "subvert the legal process", according to The Straits Times.
In the letter, Dr Lim said that "some of the facts that may cast a negative light on Brunei" include the medical condition of the patient and the "apparently inconsistent relationship between the Ministry of Health, Brunei, the Royal Family and the patient's family".
She also claimed that there had been "extraordinary and often unreasonable demands placed on me by the patient and the Royal Family, including significant out-of-pocket expenses I was made to bear... including the cost of a private air-charter to transport the patient to Brunei which I personally paid for", TODAY reported.
Pengiran Damit, who had breast cancer, was Dr Lim's patient from 2001 until her death in 2007. Last month, the news broke that Dr Lim charged her $26 million for the period January to July 2007, but later slashed the fee to just over $3 million.
In a letter of reply dated 16 March last year, the MFA said it had taken note of Dr Lim's letter and that the it "is not in a position to intervene in an ongoing legal process".
Dr Lim, who is facing 94 charges of professional misconduct by the Ministry of Health, also wrote to the chairman of the second disciplinary committee formed by the SMC to look into the complaint of overcharging against her.
Yeo told the High Court that in the letter Dr Lim sought to raise "ridiculous assertions of purported personal or professional conflict of interest against" the chairman.
Earlier, the High Court heard that Dr Lim allegedly marked up bills of third-party doctors by as much as 500 times, allegations that Dr Lim's lawyer, senior counsel Lee Eng Beng, described on Monday as "false and mischievous".
The reading of the bills were taken out of context and should include other services provided at the time, Lee contended. He also questioned SMC's lack of a benchmark to determine a case of overcharging.
Meanwhile, as the hearings were being held, Lim herself was away travelling in the U.S. and Europe.
According to Dr Lim's husband, banker Deepak Sharma, she attended a medical conference in San Francisco before going on a private trip to a high-end ski resort in Courchevel, France, where she joined her two daughters, aged 19 and 21, The New Paper reported.
On 20 March, she said on her Twitter page that was "starting the yearly pilgrimage up the mountain from Moutiers to Courchevel to enjoy the freshness of spring skiing."
On 19 March, she said she had an "exhausting day at the shops in Geneve with my teenage daughters before hitting the slopes".
On 25 March, she tweeted, "Let not an honest citizen be trampled upon by public authorities when their injustice and irregularities are exposed."
She had been expected to fly back to Singapore yesterday.

Indonesia woman Nur Elita caned in public for breaking Sharia Law in Aceh province - TomoNews

ACEH, INDONESIA — A young college student in Indonesia was publicly caned for indecency on Monday in the courtyard of Baiturrahman mosque in Banda Aceh.
According to the Jakarta Post, Nur Elita, 20, was punished under Sharia law for being in close proximity to a male university student, Wahyudi Saputra, 23, because he was not her husband or her relative.
On the day of Elita's public caning, crowds including women were heard cheering as she walked on stage. Elita was forced to kneel before she was caned five strokes. Her friend Wahyudi was forced to stand while being caned five strokes.
"Take these punishments as a lesson. What has been done by these convicts should not be taken as an example. And I hope their canings in Meuraxa district today will be the last ever," Deputy Mayor Zainal Arifin was quoted as saying in the Jakarta Post article.
Indonesia's conservative Aceh province implemented a Sharia-based law system in 2003 after becoming a special autonomous region after a long period of revolt against Indonesia.
Morality police patrol Aceh looking for anyone, especially women, who may be violating Sharia law.

October 17 2016 President Duterte Formal WelcomeCeremony at Istana Nurul ImanBrunei.
PresidentRodrigo "Rody" Roa Duterte, also known by the nickname Digong, is a Filipino lawyer and politician of Visayan descent who is the current President-elect of the Philippines after topping the official Congressional canvass for the 2016 election.
Born: March 28, 1945 (age 71), MaasinParty: PDP-Laban
Spouse: Elizabeth Abellana Zimmerman (m. 1973–2001), Honeylet Avancena
Children: Sara Duterte, Paolo Duterte, Veronica A. Duterte, Sebastian Z. Duterte
Siblings: Jocelyn Duterte, Blue Boy Duterte, Benjamin "Bong" Duterte
Previous offices: Vice-Mayor of Davao City (2010–2013)
Rodrigo "Rody" Roa Duterte (born March 28, 1945), also known by the nickname Digong, is a Filipino lawyer and politician of Visayan descent and is the President-elect of the Philippines, topping the official Congressional canvass for the 2016 election. He will be the first Mindanaoan president of the country.
Duterte is among the longest-serving mayors in the Philippines and has been Mayor of Davao City, a highly urbanized city on Mindanao island, for seven terms, totalling more than 22 years. He has also served as vice-mayor and as congressman for the city.
Nicknamed "The Punisher", vigilante groups tied to Duterte are thought to be responsible for the executions of drug traffickers, criminals, gang members and other lawless elements. Over a period of 20 years, he turned Davao City from the "murder capital of the Philippines" to what tourism organisations now describe as "the most peaceful city in southeast Asia," and what numbeo.com ranks as the world's fourth safest place.Nonetheless, Duterte has drawn criticism from various sources, particularly the press and the Philippine National Police leadership in the Aquino government, which contest the effectiveness of his policies.
Duterte had been urged to run for the Philippine presidency numerous times, but he refused these offers until well into 2015 on the grounds of a "flawed government system", old age and opposition from his family.[16] Nevertheless, on November 21, 2015, he declared his candidacy in the 2016 election contest for the office of the President of the Philippines, and won with a landslide victory, garnering 16,601,997 votes. Duterte took office on June 30, 2016, for a term of six years. He is now a 16th President of the Philippines.

Duterte is among the longest-serving mayors in the Philippines and has been Mayor of Davao City, a highly urbanized city on Mindanao island, for seven terms, totalling more than 22 years. He has also served as vice-mayor and as congressman for the city.
Nicknamed "The Punisher", vigilante groups tied to Duterte are thought to be responsible for the executions of drug traffickers, criminals, gang members and other lawless elements. Over a period of 20 years, he turned Davao City from the "murder capital of the Philippines" to what tourism organisations now describe as "the most peaceful city in southeast Asia," and what numbeo.com ranks as the world's fourth safest place.Nonetheless, Duterte has drawn criticism from various sources, particularly the press and the Philippine National Police leadership in the Aquino government, which contest the effectiveness of his policies.
Duterte had been urged to run for the Philippine presidency numerous times, but he refused these offers until well into 2015 on the grounds of a "flawed government system", old age and opposition from his family.[16] Nevertheless, on November 21, 2015, he declared his candidacy in the 2016 election contest for the office of the President of the Philippines, and won with a landslide victory, garnering 16,601,997 votes. Duterte took office on June 30, 2016, for a term of six years. He is now a 16th President of the Philippines.

Brunei is the land of unexpected treasures and Instragram entrepreneurs

http://bit.ly/155RkaU
If you were on Borneo Island, Malaysia, and had the opportunity to visit another country, just a 35 minute flight away, would you?
Of course you would, and I jumped at the chance, especially when the entire 48 hour trip was set up for me to meet with the friendly locals from start to finish (thanks Dino).
And I got to be there for their 29th National Day, when everyone dresses up and celebrates their independence with the Sultan.
He just happens to be the 29th Sultan too. And if you think you're busy, he's busier.
I found out he's not just the Sultan but also the King, Prime Minister, Supreme Commander of the armed forces, Chancellor of UBD and Minister of Finance and I think some other things.
So I put together a special video to show you around. Watch it now...

Brunei | Demi Travels

If you're wondering what's in Brunei, I've got you covered in this vlog. My mom and I decided to go there since we the tickets were pretty cheap. We were there for 5 days and spent Christmas there. Since it's a Muslim country, you definitely won't feel the Christmas vibe. Sadly, it's probably my least favourite travel experiences to date but we did try to make the most of it. Enjoy!

Brunei in 3 Mins

A showcase on some of the identity for Brunei starts from gliding through its natural environment which combine together as a recreational park, from the country's main economy support to tourist attraction location and modern infrastructure development to its people's Islamic faith landmark.

Brunei Darussalam is a tiny sultanate in the north of the island of Borneo located on the shores of the South China Sea and is surrounded by the Malayan federal states of Sabah and Sarawak. The capital, Bandar Seri Begawan, is like something from an exotic fantasy.
The splendour of the mosque of SultanOmar Ali Saiffudin is a captivating sight. This Islamic landmark is also a symbol of great wealth and was built in 1958 and was named after the father of the present sultan. Snow whiteItalianCarrara marble was used as building material, with granite from Shanghai. It commemorates the founder of modern Brunei.
On a classic longboat powered by outboard motor, we travel on the Brunei River and are soon surrounded by mangrove brush. Tropical thunderstorms and monsoon rain create dense vegetation and the ensuing humidity produces lush flora.
At the junction of two muddy-grey waterways of the Brunei River is an historic location, Kampung Ayer, a water village. Each building and adjoining pathway is built on posts yet there is both an electricity and drinking water supply. Plants decorate the terraces, and TV aerials are everywhere and it has a population of around thirty thousand.
Brunei is a land that has almost lost its history while moving into modern times. It is a country that has grown amazingly wealthy since its gas has hissed and its oil has spluttered from deep below the ground. Liquid gold - Allah be praised!

If you were on Borneo Island, Malaysia, and had the opportunity to visit another country, just a 35 minute flight away, would you?
Of course you would, and I jumped at the chance, especially when the entire 48 hour trip was set up for me to meet with the friendly locals from start to finish (thanks Dino).
And I got to be there for their 29th National Day, when everyone dresses up and celebrates their independence with the Sultan.
He just happens to be the 29th Sultan too. And if you think you're busy, he's busier.
I found out he's not just the Sultan but also the King, Prime Minister, Supreme Commander of the armed forces, Chancellor of UBD and Minister of Finance and I think some other things.
So I put together a special video to show you around. Watch it now and go on to read all about Brunei and the Instagram entrepreneurs.
Why Brunei Is Worth A VisitIt's is located on the island of Borneo, with a past time of eating and socializing.
If you like either of those you're in luck, oh and Instagram. Almost everyone it seems is on Instagram.
With a population of around 380,000 and 70% Muslim you certainly get your dose of the 3Ms here - monkeys, mosques and museums.
In my naivety I really thought it had a strong Arab influence, turns out it doesn't. They do however use Rumi -Arabic translation of how the words are pronounced, for every single Englishsign.
If you're not eating or socializing I highly recommend going on a river trip to see monkeys, crocodiles and people who live in water villages.
It's super reasonable, and a great 2 hour trip to see Brunei from the water... and of course eat more food.
Some other unique facts (don't quote me on these)
The average salary for government employee's who are degree educated is $2,600 Brunei dollars per month. That's USD $2086.
Most people do seem to work for the government, or themselves. And they work Saturdays but not Friday or Sunday - which is prayer day.
In fact the Sultan recently imposed a decision to have all businesses shut up shop between midday and 2pm on a Friday so people can pray.
This means if you want to check into a hotel around then you may have to wait. Or if you're hungry then you're out of luck. If you're an owner of a restaurant you're now losing a ton of money on one of your most popular days.
But no one argues about this as that would mean they'd have to speak up against the main guy who provides them with free education and no income tax and all those other benefits....
Did I mention they love food?
My entire trip was based around pretty incredible food. I was super lucky to have, the unofficial official food ambassador for Brunei, take me on a tour of some of the best places to eat, from food markets to restaurants.
Instagram Stars And Social Media Mavens
So here's the lesson that I learned, 70% of people in Brunei are heavy Internet users and as a result they are ALL over social media.
The holy grail seems to be Instagram. No kidding. It's amazing how many people are on it, and more importantly doing business through it.
So when they're not busy eating, they're taking photos of what they're eating and sharing them on Social Media. Honestly watch my video for proof.
While I was there I got to witness something of an Instragram phenomenon. A group of 5 ladies have been getting together to do monthly bake sales of their goods, entirely driven by Instagram.
They post photos of what they're making and the date and time of the event and hundreds show up.
On the weekend I was there I go to witness Sweet As Sara sell 600 cupcakes in 2hrs 22 mins - oh and they were delicious.
This was the first time she had done the group effort with the other ladies and over 200 people were in line.
I felt pretty priveleged to hang with many movers and shakers in the social media world while I was in Brunei. This included the Number One blogger Rano Adidas.
He's more popular than their national newspaper, radio stations and other sources of news and information combined.
In fact is THE Social Media site people go to for the latest and hottest events, trends, updates and news, with 5,000 visitors a day!
After 10 years of blogging daily he now makes multiple six figures through advertising and sponsorship, and is that influential that when he posts, people listen,
In fact he was kind enough to tag me in an Instagram photo after meeting me, and it had 100 likes within an hour and I'd picked up 60 new followers - unbelievable.
Plus before we event got to meet, we both made the National Newspaper in an article on National Day.
So now you know a little more about the unexpected treasures you'll find in Brunei, you should consider going. Otherwise I highly recommend you check out Instagram to keep up with it all.
Tell me in the comments below what you liked and learned from this video (and whether you like the new intro).

If you're wondering what's in Brunei, I've got you covered in this vlog. My mom and I decided to go there since we the tickets were pretty cheap. We were there for 5 days and spent Christmas there. Since it's a Muslim country, you definitely won't feel the Christmas vibe. Sadly, it's probably my least favourite travel experiences to date but we did try to make the most of it. Enjoy!

Bilateral meeting Speech of President Duterte in Brunei October 17 2016

Bilateral meeting Speech of President Duterte in BruneiOctober 17 2016 .
PresidentRodrigo "Rody" Roa Duterte, also known by the nickname Digong, is a Filipino lawyer and politician of Visayan descent who is the current President-elect of the Philippines after topping the official Congressional canvass for the 2016 election.
Born: March 28, 1945 (age 71), MaasinParty: PDP-Laban
Spouse: Elizabeth Abellana Zimmerman (m. 1973–2001), Honeylet Avancena
Children: Sara Duterte, Paolo Duterte, Veronica A. Duterte, Sebastian Z. Duterte
Siblings: Jocelyn Duterte, Blue Boy Duterte, Benjamin "Bong" Duterte
Previous offices: Vice-Mayor of Davao City (2010–2013)
Rodrigo "Rody" Roa Duterte (born March 28, 1945), also known by the nickname Digong, is a Filipino lawyer and politician of Visayan descent and is the President-elect of the Philippines, topping the official Congressional canvass for the 2016 election. He will be the first Mindanaoan president of the country.
Duterte is among the longest-serving mayors in the Philippines and has been Mayor of Davao City, a highly urbanized city on Mindanao island, for seven terms, totalling more than 22 years. He has also served as vice-mayor and as congressman for the city.
Nicknamed "The Punisher", vigilante groups tied to Duterte are thought to be responsible for the executions of drug traffickers, criminals, gang members and other lawless elements. Over a period of 20 years, he turned Davao City from the "murder capital of the Philippines" to what tourism organisations now describe as "the most peaceful city in southeast Asia," and what numbeo.com ranks as the world's fourth safest place.Nonetheless, Duterte has drawn criticism from various sources, particularly the press and the Philippine National Police leadership in the Aquino government, which contest the effectiveness of his policies.
Duterte had been urged to run for the Philippine presidency numerous times, but he refused these offers until well into 2015 on the grounds of a "flawed government system", old age and opposition from his family.[16] Nevertheless, on November 21, 2015, he declared his candidacy in the 2016 election contest for the office of the President of the Philippines, and won with a landslide victory, garnering 16,601,997 votes. Duterte took office on June 30, 2016, for a term of six years. He is now a 16th President of the Philippines.

Singapore Top surgeon 'threatened' MFA - 28Mar2011

Prominent surgeon Susan Lim wrote to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) saying that to defend herself properly she would have to expose information that could cause "unnecessary embarrassment" to Brunei and affect ties between the country and Singapore if a disciplinary hearing against her proceeded, the High Court heard on Monday.
Dr Lim's letter dated 1 March 2010 and addressed to Minister for Foreign AffairsGeorge Yeo was presented yesterday to the High Court, which will have to decide whether the Singapore Medical Council (SMC) can set up a second disciplinary hearing against her regarding the fees she charged a patient, the cousin of Brunei's Sultan and sister of his queen.
SMC's lawyer, senior counsel Alvin Yeo, told the High Court that the letter amounted to Dr Lim "threatening" Minister Yeo and was another attempt by her to "subvert the legal process", according to The Straits Times.
In the letter, Dr Lim said that "some of the facts that may cast a negative light on Brunei" include the medical condition of the patient and the "apparently inconsistent relationship between the Ministry of Health, Brunei, the Royal Family and the patient's family".
She also claimed that there had been "extraordinary and often unreasonable demands placed on me by the patient and the Royal Family, including significant out-of-pocket expenses I was made to bear... including the cost of a private air-charter to transport the patient to Brunei which I personally paid for", TODAY reported.
Pengiran Damit, who had breast cancer, was Dr Lim's patient from 2001 until her death in 2007. Last month, the news broke that Dr Lim charged her $26 million for the period January to July 2007, but later slashed the fee to just over $3 million.
In a letter of reply dated 16 March last year, the MFA said it had taken note of Dr Lim's letter and that the it "is not in a position to intervene in an ongoing legal process".
Dr Lim, who is facing 94 charges of professional misconduct by the Ministry of Health, also wrote to the chairman of the second disciplinary committee formed by the SMC to look into the complaint of overcharging against her.
Yeo told the High Court that in the letter Dr Lim sought to raise "ridiculous assertions of purported personal or professional conflict of interest against" the chairman.
Earlier, the High Court heard that Dr Lim allegedly marked up bills of third-party doctors by as much as 500 times, allegations that Dr Lim's lawyer, senior counsel Lee Eng Beng, described on Monday as "false and mischievous".
The reading of the bills were taken out of context and should include other services provided at the time, Lee contended. He also questioned SMC's lack of a benchmark to determine a case of overcharging.
Meanwhile, as the hearings were being held, Lim herself was away travelling in the U.S. and Europe.
According to Dr Lim's husband, banker Deepak Sharma, she attended a medical conference in San Francisco before going on a private trip to a high-end ski resort in Courchevel, France, where she joined her two daughters, aged 19 and 21, The New Paper reported.
On 20 March, she said on her Twitter page that was "starting the yearly pilgrimage up the mountain from Moutiers to Courchevel to enjoy the freshness of spring skiing."
On 19 March, she said she had an "exhausting day at the shops in Geneve with my teenage daughters before hitting the slopes".
On 25 March, she tweeted, "Let not an honest citizen be trampled upon by public authorities when their injustice and irregularities are exposed."
She had been expected to fly back to Singapore yesterday.

Brunei (Asia) Vacation Travel Video Guide

✱ 22 Hotels in Brunei - Lowest Price Guarantee ► http://goo.gl/lPGPTf
Travel video about destination Brunei.
Brunei Darussalam is a tiny sultanate in the north of the island of Borneo located on the shores of the South China Sea and is surrounded by the Malayan federal states of Sabah and Sarawak. The capital, Bandar Seri Begawan, is like something from an exotic fantasy.
The splendour of the mosque of SultanOmar Ali Saiffudin is a captivating sight. This Islamic landmark is also a symbol of great wealth and was built in 1958 and was named after the father of the present sultan. Snow whiteItalianCarrara marble was used as building material, with granite from Shanghai. It commemorates the founder of modern Brunei.
On a classic longboat powered by outboard motor, we travel on the Brunei River and are soon surrounded by mangrove brush. Tropical thunderstorms and monsoon rain create dense vegetation and the ensuing humidity produces lush flora.
At the junction of two muddy-grey waterways of the Brunei River is an historic location, Kampung Ayer, a water village. Each building and adjoining pathway is built on posts yet there is both an electricity and drinking water supply. Plants decorate the terraces, and TV aerials are everywhere and it has a population of around thirty thousand.
Brunei is a land that has almost lost its history while moving into modern times. It is a country that has grown amazingly wealthy since its gas has hissed and its oil has spluttered from deep below the ground. Liquid gold - Allah be praised!

Brunei is the land of unexpected treasures and Instragram entrepreneurs

http://bit.ly/155RkaU
If you were on Borneo Island, Malaysia, and had the opportunity to visit another country, just a 35 minute flight away, would you?
Of course you would, and I jumped at the chance, especially when the entire 48 hour trip was set up for me to meet with the friendly locals from start to finish (thanks Dino).
And I got to be there for their 29th National Day, when everyone dresses up and celebrates their independence with the Sultan.
He just happens to be the 29th Sultan too. And if you think you're busy, he's busier.
I found out he's not just the Sultan but also the King, Prime Minister, Supreme Commander of the armed forces, Chancellor of UBD and Minister of Finance and I think some other things.
So I put together a special video to show you around. Watch it now and go on to read all about Brunei and the Instagram entrepreneurs.
Why Brunei Is Worth A VisitIt's is located on the island of Borneo, with a past time of eating and socializing.
If you like either of those you're in luck, oh and Instagram. Almost everyone it seems is on Instagram.
With a population of around 380,000 and 70% Muslim you certainly get your dose of the 3Ms here - monkeys, mosques and museums.
In my naivety I really thought it had a strong Arab influence, turns out it doesn't. They do however use Rumi -Arabic translation of how the words are pronounced, for every single Englishsign.
If you're not eating or socializing I highly recommend going on a river trip to see monkeys, crocodiles and people who live in water villages.
It's super reasonable, and a great 2 hour trip to see Brunei from the water... and of course eat more food.
Some other unique facts (don't quote me on these)
The average salary for government employee's who are degree educated is $2,600 Brunei dollars per month. That's USD $2086.
Most people do seem to work for the government, or themselves. And they work Saturdays but not Friday or Sunday - which is prayer day.
In fact the Sultan recently imposed a decision to have all businesses shut up shop between midday and 2pm on a Friday so people can pray.
This means if you want to check into a hotel around then you may have to wait. Or if you're hungry then you're out of luck. If you're an owner of a restaurant you're now losing a ton of money on one of your most popular days.
But no one argues about this as that would mean they'd have to speak up against the main guy who provides them with free education and no income tax and all those other benefits....
Did I mention they love food?
My entire trip was based around pretty incredible food. I was super lucky to have, the unofficial official food ambassador for Brunei, take me on a tour of some of the best places to eat, from food markets to restaurants.
Instagram Stars And Social Media Mavens
So here's the lesson that I learned, 70% of people in Brunei are heavy Internet users and as a result they are ALL over social media.
The holy grail seems to be Instagram. No kidding. It's amazing how many people are on it, and more importantly doing business through it.
So when they're not busy eating, they're taking photos of what they're eating and sharing them on Social Media. Honestly watch my video for proof.
While I was there I got to witness something of an Instragram phenomenon. A group of 5 ladies have been getting together to do monthly bake sales of their goods, entirely driven by Instagram.
They post photos of what they're making and the date and time of the event and hundreds show up.
On the weekend I was there I go to witness Sweet As Sara sell 600 cupcakes in 2hrs 22 mins - oh and they were delicious.
This was the first time she had done the group effort with the other ladies and over 200 people were in line.
I felt pretty priveleged to hang with many movers and shakers in the social media world while I was in Brunei. This included the Number One blogger Rano Adidas.
He's more popular than their national newspaper, radio stations and other sources of news and information combined.
In fact is THE Social Media site people go to for the latest and hottest events, trends, updates and news, with 5,000 visitors a day!
After 10 years of blogging daily he now makes multiple six figures through advertising and sponsorship, and is that influential that when he posts, people listen,
In fact he was kind enough to tag me in an Instagram photo after meeting me, and it had 100 likes within an hour and I'd picked up 60 new followers - unbelievable.
Plus before we event got to meet, we both made the National Newspaper in an article on National Day.
So now you know a little more about the unexpected treasures you'll find in Brunei, you should consider going. Otherwise I highly recommend you check out Instagram to keep up with it all.
Tell me in the comments below what you liked and learned from this video (and whether you like the new intro).
